Two sisters, sister A and sister B, play SCRABBLE with each other every evening. Sister A is a statistician, and she draws a ran

dom sample of 30 results from the 1,420 total games that have been played to construct a confidence interval estimate of p, the proportion of SCRABBLE games between her and her sister that she has won. Her 95% confidence interval estimate of p is LCL = 0.36, UCL = 0.69.
A 95% confidence interval estimate of the total number of games sister A has won out of the 1,450 games that have been played is LCL =___________ and UCL = ___________

The Illinois State Toll Highway Authority is conducting a study to estimate the proportion of low-income commuters who drive to work on a toll road. The project manager wants to estimate the proportion to within 0.03 with 95% confidence, and the project manager believes that p will turn out to be approximately 0.11.

A sample size no smaller than __________ is needed.

Answer:

First question: LCL = 522, UCL = 1000.5

Second question: A sample size no smaller than 418 is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

First question:

Lower bound:

0.36 of 1450. So

0.36*1450 = 522

Upper bound:

0.69 of 1450. So

0.69*1450 = 1000.5

LCL = 522, UCL = 1000.5

Second question:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

The margin of error is:

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

The project manager believes that p will turn out to be approximately 0.11.

This means that \pi = 0.11

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

The project manager wants to estimate the proportion to within 0.03

This means that the sample size needed is given by n, and n is found when M = 0.03. So

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

0.03 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.11*0.89}{n}}

0.03\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.11*0.89}

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.11*0.89}}{0.03}

(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.11*0.89}}{0.03})^2

n = 417.9

Rounding up

A sample size no smaller than 418 is needed.

What are the domain and range of each relation? Drag the answer into the box to match each relation. A mapping diagram. Element
ra1l [238]

Answer:

Domain: {−2, −1, 0, 2} Range: {−4, −2, 2}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a mapping diagram as shown below:

X Y

-2 -4

-1 -2

0 2

2


For better view, you can check the attached mapping diagram.

From that diagram we have to find domain and range.

Domain contains only x values so domain will be:

Domain: {-2,-1,0,2}

Range contains only y values so range will be:

Range: {-4,-2,2}

We see that only third choice matches obtained values of domain and range.

Hence final answer is  Domain: {−2, −1, 0, 2} Range: {−4, −2, 2}

Scrat [10]

Answer:

a. $ 2,431.01 = 4 years

b. $ 4,584.04  = 17 years

c. 4.57 years = $ 2,499.57

d. 8.3 year = $ 2,998.48

e.  $ 2,431.01 = 4 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound Interest Equation

A = P(1 + r/n)nt

Where:

A = Accrued Amount (principal + interest)

P = Principal Amount

I = Interest Amount

R = Annual Nominal Interest Rate in percent

r = Annual Nominal Interest Rate as a decimal

r = R/100

t = Time Involved in years, 0.5 years is calculated as 6 months, etc.

n = number of compounding periods per unit t; at the END of each period
